Great piece on climate & diet by @AnnieLowrey. It makes a point that's important and underappreciated: Eating smaller pieces of larger animals reduces overall suffering. For the climate, eat less beef & don't waste food. https://t.co/WfZgj2s3EG

Great piece on inordinate attention given to marginal changes in junk food...Labeling processed foods as ‘clean’ make us feel safe. And that’s a problem.
